An opening for sitting or passage · dominant
In Acts 20:9, the genitive singular feminine form occurs in the clause where Eutychus is sitting and later falls from the third story; the APB renders the location as "in the window." In 2 Corinthians 11:33, the same form occurs in the account of being lowered in a basket through the wall; the APB renders the clause "through a window."
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as "window" in both cited verses, locating Eutychus in Acts 20:9 and describing the route of escape in 2 Corinthians 11:33. The verse is read as a whole.
